Barcelona, Sevilla and Villareal start their journey today in the group stage of the 2021/2022 Champions League. Tomorrow it will be the turn of Atlético de Madrid and Real Madrid in what will involve the participation of five Spanish teams in this competition. This will make even more viewers looking for how to watch the games of the best club competition in the world. Therefore, we explain how to watch the Champions on TV, satellite and online, in addition to confirming that we will have many more games in 4K UHD this year .
This season of the Champions League will be identical to the previous one in terms of schedules and channels. Group stage matches will take place at 6:45 PM and 9:00 PM on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. The channel in charge of broadcasting this content will continue to be Movistar Champions League and we will continue without having an open game, something that disappeared a few seasons ago and has no prospect of returning at any time.
Movistar + and Orange TV to watch the Champions League
As nothing changes at the channel and schedule level, it also does not change when it comes to the operators with rights. Movistar and Orange will continue to be in charge of bringing this content to customers in Spain. Both operators have interesting offers for those who want to watch football on television with these rates:

Finally we will have more games in 4K
Until the previous season, Movistar Liga de Campeones UHD only broadcast 8 games during the entire competition. As we explained to you at that time, from 2021/2022, the number of games in 4K was going to increase, although we did not know exactly the specific number.
Luckily, we have been able to confirm this point and we can tell you that it will be ALL the matches from the round of 16 in the case of the Champions League and ALL the matches from the quarter-finals in the case of the Europa League. In both cases, the matches can be seen in this resolution, whether or not Spanish teams are involved.
